Save the Children, the international support group, has issued a new study on the condition of mothers around the world. The study by Save the Children is part of a new campaign aimed at improving the health and education of mothers around the world. The group also hopes to pressure lawmakers to increase international aid for women's programs.

The report rates 96 countries on issues important to mothers. They include health care and family planning services, the health of their children, education and political involvement. Sweden, Norway and Denmark were rated the highest, followed by other industrial countries.

The report confirms what Save the Children has been saying for more than 70 years. The lives of children around the world will not improve unless the lives of their mothers improve. There is a direct link between the health of children and the quality of health care, family planning services and education offered to mothers. The ten countries rated worst in the study have problems with childbirth. Less than one-third of the births in those countries are attended by trained health care professionals. Also, only three percent of the women use a system to prevent pregnancies. In these countries, one in twelve women die during childbirth. But, the death rate for women during childbirth is only one in six thousand.

Save the Children says more educational programs for mothers and girls will improve the ability of women to raise healthy babies. The group says millions of lives could be saved if more money were invested in training programs. Family planning alone could prevent one- fourth of all deaths among new-born babies and their mothers. It would teach women to wait two or more years between births.

  The fax has greatly changed office work, especially in China.When you place a sheet of paper in a fax machine, the machine“reads”the writing on the page and changes the shapes of letters   1   electronic signals.It then sends these signals down an ordinary telephone line to another fax machine,   2   changes the signals back into the shapes of letters.You can imagine   3   useful this is, particularly in   4   like China and Japan, which use written characters not letters.It is also useful for sending pictures, designs, maps and so on.

  Amelia had heard of a woman aviation teacher, Anita Snook, and   5  (gave/took)flying lessons with her at Kinner Field near Long Beach, California.In July, Amelia bought a plane and named it“The Canary.”In October, 1922, Amelia began breaking world records and   6  (动词)a women’s highest altitude(海拔高度)record at 14 000 feet.

  On April 27, 1926, Mr.H.H.Railey called Amelia and asked,“  7  (疑问副词)would you like to be the first woman to fly across the Atlantic?”  8   Mr.Railey had asked by George Putman, a New York Publisher, to find a woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean.(改错)No woman had ever flown this far across the Atlantic.Since Earhart had no experience with more than one-engine planes, Amelia went on the flight as a passenger.Two men, Wilmer Stultz and Slim Gordon, were   9  (actual)going to fly the plane.On Sunday, June 3,1928, Amelia went to Nova Scotia to start her flight.Some bad weather held the flight back until June 18, though.They flew through dense fog most of the way and landed in South Wales instead of Ireland with only a bit of fuel left.

  Amelia got all the attention as the   10  (序数词)“girl”to fly across the Atlantic.She was upset that the two men who had actually flown the plane didn’t get any attention.
